Rally to End Genocide in Darfur: A conversation with Joey Cheek and Brian Steidle
April 27, 2006

On April 30th, rallies to end genocide in Darfur will take place in Washington, DC, San Francisco, and around the country. Olympic speedskating gold medalist Joey Cheek and former U.S. Marine Brian Steidle will be among the speakers. They talk with Jerry Fowler about their speaking tours around the country, the public's reaction to their decisions to speak out for Darfur, and the future of the Darfur movement.

Update: The April 30 rallies are starting to get press coverage nationwide -- including the Washington Post, the Boston Globe, the Philadelphia Inquirer, the Oregonian, and (drumroll) People Magazine. But maybe DCist put it best: "demonstrations for causes as compelling as stepping up to save the people of Darfur deserve what little pimping we can give them."
